I just received a sample pack of professional fine art papers. They present a lot of possibilities; however, what really interests me are the canvas samples. Hopefully they will not be too heavy for my purposes.

Recently, I’ve been looking at some possibilities of painting a variety of local insects. I’ve always liked insects: as a boy I was an avid collector.

Spiders are great too, but they seem harder to draw for some reason. I’ll try to do some tomorrow.

After a large section of one of the main structures fell into the creek, the “Friends of Cache Creek” volunteered to remove the debris. They came out early on a Saturday morning and removed all the metal roofing material.

It looked like quite a chore -i.e., hauling it up the side of the levee on their backs!

Thanks!
